Chase The Morning Lyrics - Repo! The Genetic Opera - Alexa Vega

Shilo, is your name Shilo? 

Can I talk to you? 

Can you come down please 

So we can speak? 

I saw you at the show 

I thought I'd seen a ghost 

Your resemblance is striking 

You have your mother's eyes 

Her hair, I was told you died with her 

All these years have come and gone 

How do I put this? I'm your God mom 

State your business 

Business? 

What do you want? 

I want, I want to finally meet you 

Something real to cling to 

Leave you with the hope that 

You will go do all you're meant to 

All I've failed to 

In you is a world of promise 

We have both been kept in bondage 

But you can learn from all my failures 

I'm not supposed to talk to strangers 

Or let them through the gate? 

That either, a big risk, a big fence 

A mistake, a new friend 

Chase the morning 

Yield for nothing 

Chase the morning 

Yield for nothing 

How'd you do that? Do what? 

Do that, that, that eye thing 

These eyes can do more than see 

I know I mean, I've seen you sing 

Where? 

From my window 

I can see the world from there 

Name the stars and constellations 

Count the cars and watch the seasons 

I wish we could've watched together 

I can't have guests 

Never? 

Ever if dad found out 

That I'd been let out or you'd been let in 

I should go then, before I do promise me you won't 

It's better that you 

Don't forget me 

'Best if I resume my life inside my bedroom 

Don't forget that a sheltered rose needs a little 

Room to bloom outside her bedroom 

Chase the morning 

Yield for nothing 

Chase the morning 

Yield for nothing 

Let your life be your dream 

Integrity, honesty 

It's too late for me 

Don't look back 'til you're free to 

Chase the morning 

Yield for nothing 

Chase the morning 

Yield for nothing 

Yield for nothing
